Cyber Hater

So with you there CH... Maybe I started zoning and missed something -- but ####SPOILER ######

The whole antagonist goal was to study the tech that made him tick? Wasn't that tech designed on earth 300 years ago? So wouldn't they already have it? Just asking -- cuz you know that's the whole conflict of the movie and it makes zero sense. But again, I zoned so maybe I missed an explanation.

im with u too LJ! made no sense! then becomes cliche battle for good blah blah blah, sacrifice, blha blah blah. REWRITEEEEEE

Thanks for all the input guys...

I'm either off to Miami or a private bungalow in the Hollywood Hills...7 days of nonstop writing...then going to Goldeneye (Jamaica) for a week, top of May, to unwind. THEN get busy on my first draft...

Miami? Private bungalows? Jamaica!? Holy sh!t, CyberHater! How rich are you?

I'm a struggling artist dood...

...can someone please pass the Grey Poupon?

What are you 12? Someone needs to delete the Justin Bieber Songbook from their IPod and come back to reality with all the adults.

LOL. I thought it was funny...

Kitchen Sink 3D?

only if it adds in the telling of the story.

Agreed. I mean if you want to show any conceits or special setpieces that drive the story and show the world or characters you've created. I was sitting in a studio exec's office and he was showing me some comic panels for a movie and it didn't add anything - but I saw some panels that had so much heart and action in them yesterday, I was like "wow, that rocks..."

As far as my question goes, Nate at the ** answered it with this: http://mysterymanonfilm.blogspot.com/2008/02/examples-of-cinematic-storytelling.html

As far as storyboards -- I storyboard EVERYTHING I'm gonna shoot. Have an amazing artist I work with...

Thanks for the replies tho guys

Heard just a bit of the rifftrax version. I chuckled.

Man that thing rocks if you have the right setup. Wish there was more to the entire package however. It's almost certainly going to be an annoying double dip situation.

Thanks for yhe review. Definitely have this on my watch list.

It's a film that truly resonates

i can't wait to see this...next to The Dark Knight Rises and a few other movies, this is high on my list of films to watch. And, it should come to my town since Pittsburgh does support indie films and we have smaller indie theatres to show it in.

Shadow 19 was dopeeee. Didn't read Pawn yet. Will read that and Uprising for sure next. Reading Indiana Jones/City of Gods -- FUCKING EPIC! Darabont is my new idol!

EMPIRE OF THE WOLF by John Pile is great, too. Coincidentally, Pile just went out with another spec today.

Indiana Jones and The City of God was REALLY good.

Did you read Kitchen Sink yet. It's my favorite script this year. Just perfect.

Yeah read awhile ago - check CG review section, I posted thoughts on some of your reviews... Just read "Contraband" - It wasn't terrible as I got through it - but it real run of the mill... Wahlberg ALL DAY lol... Even though he's a cool ass dood to chill with....

Check "cutthroat" - it's my kinda script...

I vote Broken City! Great script that really grips you.

Thanks for the tip on Broken City. I'll read that next. I just finished London Boulevard (FANTASTIC)and Gold (BEYOND LOUSY)...

Chronicle...meh. Just watch Akira again, or read Marvel's "Runaways." Much better.

I'll say Body Heat because I actually read it in film school and it's a very solid script. (at least I thought so when I was 20.) I watched Double Indemnity last year and didn't think it measured up to Sunset Boulevard, but what does?

Re-read Harry Valentine.

@ BoyNo - it's a 4 Quadrant film.

@ TB - luv Rain, but Ninja Assasin flopped nasty styles.

@ Charlie - yes, original shit...

Originality and, if it fits, a rousing battle scene or two (preferably with a twist). Avatar for all its faults had a decent battle at the end.

true - twist part

The guy at the copy shop once accidentally printed one of my scripts onto glossy, photo paper. My god, did that shit look sexy! Took my freshly printed draft of 'Vampires Vs Robots 2: The Revengening' straight home and immediately started rubbing my d!ck all over it. But what did it expect? A script lays around, dressed all shiny like that... looks like IT WANTS IT!

Oh, wait. You said "serious answers" only.

damn you Anon

Fair idea. But I have a lot of pre-existing films go use as visual paradigms

I uploaded the script for The Artist awhile back. It comes in at 42 pages but it's kind of cheat with no dialogue.

Good shit

Just went down to 96 due to QuickFlix's review. While that was bound to happen at some point, a lower RT rating isn't going to stop me from seeing this. Still excited.

It's back up to 975 lol.

Sorry I meant % not five lol. The score is out too today on Amazon as MP3 downloads.
